Hello Chris I religiously read (and frequently save) your excellent
posts in comp.unix.shell.

Glad to help.

Control+RMB works fine in an xterm and the huge font is right for me.
Is there any way to do this on the command line?

Yes, you can specify any font you like. I don't remember what it
is, offhand, but it is in the man page. (It's probably -fn
FONTSPEC.)
